Pimply is a word that we often use to describe someone's skin, usually referring to the face or other parts of the body. When we say someone is pimply, it means they have small raised bumps called pimples on their skin. These pimples can be red, swollen, and sometimes filled with pus. Imagine you wake up in the morning and see tiny hills on your skin, like little volcanoes erupting on your face or body. That's what it means to have pimples. It's like your skin is playing a game of "pop goes the pimple" with you. These little bumps may not feel so great, and we often associate them with the teenage years, when our bodies are going through changes. But people of all ages can have pimples, and they can appear anywhere on the body, not just the face. Sometimes pimples can be caused by things like hormones (which are chemicals in our bodies that help them work properly) or when we have too much oil in our skin. Other times, they can be caused by things like not cleaning our skin well, using certain products that clog our pores (which are tiny openings in our skin), or even touching our faces with dirty hands. It's kind of like when we don't take good care of our bedrooms and they start to get messy, right? The word "pimply" can also be used in another way that's not related to skin. On surfaces like oranges or lemons, you might sometimes see tiny raised spots that look like pimples. These spots are called pips or pustules, which is another way to describe something that's pimply. So when we say an orange is pimply, we're talking about the little raised bumps on its skin. To sum it up, "pimply" is a word we use to describe someone's skin when it has small, raised bumps called pimples. These pimples can be caused by different factors but are often associated with hormones, oil, or not taking good care of our skin. It's also used to describe tiny raised spots on fruits like oranges. So next time you come across someone or something described as pimply, you'll know what it means!
